Trey Wonder
Trey Wonder sent ripples of antagonist punk-rock rancour through Hawaii in 2017 with his debut single, Back We Go. Influenced by Butthole Surfers, Misfits, NOFX, L7, Nirvana, Descendents and Pixies, Trey Wonder engineered his rhythmically infectious brand of garagey alt-punk. Instead of scribing sonic signatures that have already been etched through the alternative landscape, he became the architect of a scuzzy new sound, licked with an authentic DIY aesthetic.
After unveiling four albums as an independent solo artist, in 2023, he formed his three-piece band, Trey Wonder & the Graveyard Thunder, featuring Steve Campbell (drums) and A.J. Slay (bass). In 2024, the trio is working on a new album, which will be followed by a US tour. Though Trey Wonder and the Graveyard Thunder’s sound has remained unaffected by the hype amassing around them, which saw the fourth LP garnering 690,000 streams on Spotify alone, behind the scenes, the trio is secretly blueprinting their plan for world domination.
